" The Facts.
'Call me early," said the girlie,
"I'm to be the Queen of May."
In the morning she got warning
But she wouldn't leave the hay.

She named herself the Queen of May,
'Twas predatory. 1 ''!.'
But people often act that way i
When seeking glory. . i

Her usurpation.
Some of them fumed or even wept '
With indignation. "
They promptly passed the May Queen by
With views divergent;
And each was quick to qualify
As- an insurgent.
